Baptism is the basis of the whole Christian life, the gateway to life in the Spirit and the door through which we enter in order to receive the other sacraments.

Through Baptism, we are freed from sin and reborn as sons and daughters of God. We become members of Christ and are incorporated into the Church. Through this sacrament we are made sharers in the Church’s mission. CCC 1213

Description: ThePastoral Leadership Commission (PLC) is based on a servant leadership modelthat provides an opportunity for parishioners to share their time and talentswith our parish. Parishioners can serve as commission members on one of theeight commissions that support our parish. One member from each commissionparticipates as a representative on the PLC.

Three At-Large PLC members that are chosen by the Pastor alongwith the PLC representatives provide support and give feedback to the Pastor atPLC meetings. The PLC promotes our three core values among all commissions andpromotes the parish’s mission and theme for the year in all ministries.

The overall structure of this model allowsfor greater participation by parishioners in their parish and a more informedparish leadership group. It creates the opportunity for all parish commissionmembers and leaders to pray together for the people of St. John’s and theopportunity for more persons to become involved and active in other St. John’sministries.

Monthly commission meetings incorporate a simple meal followed byprayer before the Commission meetings and PLC meeting. The Commissions and thePastoral Leadership Council work in partnership with staff to develop thevision, policies and programs that support our Parish mission.

Please contact theparish office for more information.
